Recently purchased an Ibiza cupra R handbrake

Found a crashed cupra on Tuesday, so went up and stole the polished inlet, oil filler cap & dipstick...then had to go back & finish the job so had the rocker as well, with alot of swearing i managed to get it all back on...then attacked the lot with autosol...came up well but the rocker still isnt looking fantastic:

before:


after:

Nice to see it all on paper mate!

Your car's most certainly a bit of a monster!

One thing I will say though, get a damn stubby on her!!

a monster indeed! a proper looker
looking forward to more progress!
hmmm maybe i should attempt a progress thread........nah, too much like hard work

good shout tim will have to get one soonish..

Dan do it!! this section needs livening up a bit!, i've got sooo much planned i had to make one

got my Air filter through the post...about time

Old:



New:



unfortunately the idiots sent me the wrong shaped one so its well and truley lodged against the bumper, still managed to fit it though

Also got some dice off ebay, not sure about them, but if i get RS's they will definately be a keeper:



Fitting my Ferodo pads at 3pm at A.P.D, set me back a whopping £120 for the pair...but only the best for my brembos this made me chuckle:

hehe race use only! i have the same blue dice mate, think they stand out nicely........which is precisely why they are off the car until i go to a show!

What's your 0-60 times? I'm guessing sub 6 seconds

looking at low 5's, getting the traction down is a pain though...thats why my new toyos i bought at the end of december now need changing :S

the ibizas party piece is a rolling start

a few more showing the bay....loving it at the mo, definately gonna get hold of a polished strut brace & a few more caps...was also thinking of colour coding alot of the pipework..

ah nice one mate, it's looking really good!

it does move pretty well...hurry up and get some RS's!

This is a really superb example of a cupra i phoned up bout this wen it came up for sale.....and kept gettn no answer i now know y

Will hav to dig out sum fotos of mine and get them up....my next plan is to chrome out my bay too

nice, one was crashed into like this im shure???

when was this? definately wasnt mine...but there are a fair few blue cupras with leon cupra style rims out there..
